Thanksgiving Recap

Well ...

... the drama

... the hurt feelings

... the dread 

all for nothing. 

It was a very nice Thanksgiving. 

You'd never know what happened before. 

It felt genuine. 

Maybe it cleared the air -- gave us a needed reset. 

I'm not going to think too hard about it today. 

My limbic system needs a rest hah!

Look at this perfect plate. The food was delicious. 

My DIL is strictly GF
so the meal was all GF.

My grandson was really sick though. Poor baby and possibly poor the-rest-of-us if we catch it. He was a trooper, but barely hanging in -- all the stops ... binky, screen time, dessert for dinner. 

We're heading to visit the extended family for a bit today (cousins and their kids). It's going to be chaotic and I'm not sure worth the effort. We're not meeting at the cabins ... meeting at a lunch place now, maybe. Who knows. I sort of tried to get out of it when I found out the new plans that aren't really plans. 

"We'll text with updates and an address when you get close."

I guess either way, it's not a big deal. I have a feeling everyone will be in lots of different places and the visit will be "hellos" in passing with most of the group. It's an hour away and that feels like too much for too little.

But, that said, my aunt and uncle are in their 80s and my uncle is unwell. Making THIS effort to see them again was the point in the first place. I'm well enough that I'm not worried about exposing them to germs. 

Hope you had a good holiday and get a nice extended weekend. Later gators.
